What are you gonna do in your franchise?

[ondreythegiant]

With the release so close, and some even already having the game, i'm sure the thoughts are racing through everyone's heads. What team are you gonna use in franchise, and what are some plans you have for your team?

well im gona use the M's and in the vault make a rookie Ken Griffey JR and have him save the chise and turn them around!

Use the Padres. Get Knights roster and probably (depending on good he turns out in the set and his ST sim stats) give Casey Kelly or Simon Castro the #5 spot. I hate LeBlanc and Stauffer.

Probably go with

Latos
Richard
Harang
Luebke
Kelly/Castro

Just to go R/L/R/L/R

I'll probably put Stauffer in the pen though as a long man.

CL - Bell
SU - Adams
SU - Gregerson
MR - Qualls
MR - Frieri
MR - Thatcher
MR - Flores
LR - Stauffer

Could someone tell how long does it take from the day the game releases for Knight's roster to come out?

I'll be using the Mets and will be trying to improve that rotation as best as I can.

Can't say this year but it will be MUCH faster with the Player Vault feature. At least for V1.

Going to roll with the Mariners and wait for Knight's rosters. I'll probably end up simming more the first year than my others years just because this team is so bad.

I wasn't planning on the using the Dodgers, but I've been lured by their starting pitching. And as I wait for Knight/Co rosters, I'll play as different teams to get a feel for sliders that need tweaking.

I won't do anything to drastic with the Dodgers, but I will be on the lookout for a LF, 3B and potentially a 1B at season's end. I've never been a fan of platooning position players in a video game, but I will with my LFers this year.

I'm also going to be doing more simming so I can play multiple seasons. What I have yet to determine is how I'm going to sim those games - MoM, SportsCast, etc.
